Forklift Truck Training

ELECTRIC PALLET/STACKER TRUCK TRAINING

Electric pallet trucks and stacker trucks are designed for the safe movement and stacking of palletised loads over short distances. They are commonly used in warehouses, retail back of house areas, and loading bays where manual handling needs to be reduced. Powered travel and lifting functions allow operators to move loads efficiently with minimal physical effort.
